This review is from: Fatal Fury: Mark of The Wolves (Video Game)

Mark of the wolves is classic 2d fighitng at its best. Everything about this game is well executed and the fighters are neither overpowered nor underbalanced. The Graphics look a little pixilated, But considering the type of game and the amount of character animations it is easily overlooked.

The way the characters work is wonderfull. You won't be doing 25+ hit combos Like in some of the new 2D fighters. The interaction and balance really takes the forefront here. Learning the timing for jumping, combos, and use of special moves really becomes nessecary or else you will be getting a major pounding from your opponent.

There are a few things to consider though before purchasing.

1) This game is hard. Very Hard. If any of you remember the Arcade version of "Street Fighter 2 Turbo" sucking away your quarters you know what I'm talking about.

2) You realy need to invest in a joystick to play this game. The Dream Cast controler just doesn't cut it here. You really need to use "Super Moves" to be effective against the CPU and you have to pull them off reliably and effectivly. Some of the super moves require lots of directional input, and the regular controller is going to leave you frustrated. (Dream Cast Joysticks are a cheap buy these days at about 10$ USD)


Overall this game is great. Old 2d fighting fans who pumped quarters at the arcades will be getting top notch difficulty and quality. Newer gamers or people beefing up their Dream Cast collections will get an excellent 2 player fighing game to play with friends and family, althouth the single player experience might be a bit too hard.

For one of the final games of the original SNK run and one of the few games that SNK touted as a 2-D masterpiece, it is a sure-fire hit. Yes, I said that also about Last Blade 2, but this is its sister game, and boy, is it worth the money. The gameplay is simplified, yet familiar, taking a page out of the Street Fighter Alpha and SF3 series, the characters all have a connection to the days of Fatal Fury Past, the graphics are phenomenal, and the presentation is superb. My only regret: they didn't make a sequel to this or Last Blade 2. Oh well. Making due with these is good enough for me. Get...this...game!

Great game and demonstrates why the dreamcast had great fighting games! Get this game if you like fighting games, and if you are a fan of the best fighter ever... Terry Bogard!
